Type Class Description
Geocrystaline F
Primal G
Planet desert.png Desert H
Adaptable K
Rocky L
Planet tundra.png Tundra L This L-class subset planet has permafrost cover most of the surface. A stable biosphere exists but vegetation is mostly limited to mosses and lichens.
Planet continental.png Continental M The arch-typical Minshara planet, continental or temperate class M planets have great landmasses are separated by oceans, with large climate variations depending on latitude and precipitation.
Planet alpine.png Alpine M A Minshara class world, the Alpine-subset class M planet has a mountainous surface. Snow covers the mountaintops and frozen-over lakes dot the valleys. While the planet experiences minimal seasonal variations, the still-liquid water beneath the frozen surface of the lakes is enough to sustain some hardy vegetation."
Planet arctic.png Arctic M A Minshara class world, the Arctic-subset is still a class M planet supports a rich ecosystem. Its surface may be frigid, yet the planet experiences seasonal variations and the equatorial band is covered by vegetation.
Planet arid.png Arid M A Minshara class world, the Arid-subset class M planet is a dry, rocky world. The dust-covered terrain consists largely of mesas and canyons. Forests can be found in the more temperate polar regions, but vegetation is otherwise scarce.
Marshland M
Planet savannah.png Savanna M A Minshara class world, the Savannah-subset class M planet has a rocky surface dominated by dry, arid plains. The small hydrosphere allows for brief wet seasons, but aside from a few ubiquitous grasses vegetation is largely concentrated around shallow oases.
Planet tropical.png Tropical M A Minshara class world, the Tropical-subset class M planet is a humid, rocky world. Seasons with significant precipitation are interchanged with drier periods. Most landmasses are covered in dense vegetation.
Planet ocean.png Ocean O Pelagic planets are ocean worlds - they cover more than 90% of the surface, with only the occasional archipelago breaking the vast stretches of water. Despite the significant hydrosphere and mild temperature, the argon-oxygen atmosphere rarely allows for complex life-form to evolve here.
